EPS inhibitor treatment of Salmonella impacts evolution without selecting for resistance to biofilm inhibition

Abstract Virulence factors of pathogens, such as toxin production and biofilm formation, often exhibit a public character, providing benefits to nearby non-producers. Consequently, anti-virulence drugs targeting these public traits may not select for resistance, as resistant mutants that resume prod...
